To make these Keto Garlic Cheese Fingers, you’ll need:
- 2 low-carb tortillas: Your choice of low-carb tortillas (like Mission Carb Balance) to keep carbs low.
- 1/4 cup butter (soft): Softened butter to create the crispy, golden-brown crust.
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic: Fresh garlic for a bold flavor.
- 1 Tbsp parsley: Adds a fresh, herbal note and some color.
- 1 cup mozzarella (shredded): Melts perfectly for that gooey, stretchy cheesy finish.
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley until well combined.
- Assemble the First Layer: Place one tortilla on a flat surface. Spread half of the garlic butter mixture evenly over the tortilla. Top with ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Top with Second Tortilla: Place the second tortilla on top, spread the remaining garlic butter over it, and sprinkle with the remaining ½ cup of mozzarella.
- Air Fry or Bake: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F. Cook the tortilla stack for 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are crisp. Alternatively, bake at 375°F for 8-10 minutes.
- Finish Under Broiler: Transfer to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until the top tortilla is golden and the cheese bubbles.
- Slice and Serve: Let cool slightly before slicing into strips or “fingers” with a pizza cutter. Serve hot with your favorite keto dipping sauces like marinara or ranch.

FAQ
1. Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?
Coconut flour can be used, but it’s more absorbent. Substitute 1/4 cup of coconut flour for the almond flour and adjust the texture of the dough as needed.
2. Is this recipe gluten-free?
Yes! This recipe is completely gluten-free and keto-friendly.
3. Can I freeze these?
Absolutely! Bake them as instructed, let them cool completely, and freeze in a single layer on a tray. Once frozen, transfer to a ziplock bag. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for crispy results.
4. What’s the best way to melt the cheese?
Microwaving is the easiest method, but you can also melt the cheese in a double boiler if you prefer.
5. Can I make this dairy-free?
For a dairy-free version, try using dairy-free cheese alternatives and coconut cream in place of cream cheese. Note that the texture may vary.
6. What dips go well with these?
Low-carb marinara, ranch dressing, or garlic aioli are all excellent choices!
